Dahlias are grown from tubers (similar to a bulb, but thin-skinned like a potato). Plant tubers in the springtime, about the same time as you would your vegetable gardens or when the ground is warm enough to work up and play in daily. Plant them in a full sun location (giving them 6-8 hours of direct sunlight) and enjoy blooms all summer long. They will bloom and provide you with color and abundant flowers for cutting and enjoying throughout the summer.
The more you cut a dahlia plant, the more it will bloom. Most cut dahlias will last up to 5 days once cut and treated.

First year growing in 2025 and it was a stunner. Prolific bloomer. Pure red large blooms on strong plants that don't get overly tall. Definitely growing again next year. Highly recommend this one especially for the price.
The picture does not do this beauty justice. This is a stunningly beautiful blood red dahlia. It almost looks like velvet. It takes on a very nice form, and sticks out like a sore thumb. I highly recommend this one. (Growing in Zone 5/6 in south central Michigan.)
Gorgeous blooms of deep red! Absolutely stunning!
American Beauty blooms year after year, producing a strong plant with prolific blooms and bright flower.
This is absolutely my favorite red dahlia. It continued to produce numerous large, deep red dahlias on strong stems all summer long. Each successive bloom was a breath-taking triumph! Thank you for such perfection!
